From sleek suits to dazzling chains, the 2024 NBA draft is a chance for the league's newest players to make an early statement on the Barclays Center stage.

From Paolo Banchero 's purple suit and 'P5' chain to LeBron James ' iconic all-white look, NBA top draft pick fashion has seen plenty of evolution over the years. Here are the looks of every No. 1 pick since 2000:
